Structure field list including key, data, relationships and ABAP select examples

TBTCM is a standard SAP Structure so does not store data like a database table does. It can be used to define the fields of other actual tables or to process "Run-time information on batch job" Information within sap ABAP programs.

This is done by declaring abap internal tables, work areas or database tables based on this Structure. These can then be used to store and process the required data appropriately.

i.e. DATA: wa_TBTCM TYPE TBTCM.

The TBTCM table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about Run-time information on batch job data available in SAP. These include JOBCOUNT (Job ID), JOBGROUP (Summary of jobs for a group), INTREPORT (Name of internal report for batch job), SDLUNAME (Initiator of job/step scheduling).. See below for full list along with technical details, documentation, text table, check tables, foreign key relationships, conversion routines, relevant tcodes and example ABAP select code etc. .
